The butter tossed with fettucini (or spaghetti or angel hair, my
favorite) sounds quite tasty. I'd likely add a dash of olive oil and a
dash of red pepper flakes to the seasoning along with the garlic and
herbs. I'd also sprinkle the finished pasta with freshly grated
parmesan.

Thing is, for tossing with pasta, it's not really necessary to spend
$10-12 for the butter. JMHO, of course.
